Olive Branch Hydraulics manufactures hydraulic orbital motors for OEM equipment and replacement enquiries. This catalogue range uses disc distribution and heavy-duty tapered roller bearing support in the standard bearing-equipped versions.
The range has seven nominal sizes: 200, 250, 315, 400, 500, 630 and 800 cc/rev. Torque reaches 1460 Nm continuous and 1520 Nm intermittent.
This BMT hydraulic motor is a disc valve orbital motor for conveyors, augers, rotary equipment and engineered wheel drives. It is supplied EXW Hebei, China.
Four body variants are available: BMT standard (square or diamond flange), BMTW wheel motor, BMTS bearingless motor and BMTB parking brake motor. Each quotation is matched to a confirmed drawing, and no machine-specific fit is claimed.
Common search terms for this motor are motor hidráulico orbital BMT (ES), moteur hydraulique orbital BMT (FR) and гидромотор BMT (RU). Related series: B6K and B4K orbital motors.
Four codes fix the configuration: shaft, flange, port and drain. All values come from catalogue pages P85–P94 (PDF 87–96).

H is the labelled installation-face-to-rear reference, excluding the shaft projection. Match the chosen shaft and flange drawing separately. BMTB brake drawings use 195/245/310/390/490/625 labels that differ from the standard size codes; confirm the brake assembly code and length rather than silently equating them.
For BMTW A10, the drawing gives a 45 mm taper 1:10 and tightening torque 500±20 Nm for the illustrated shaft nut. This is an assembly-specific value, not a general flange bolt torque.
Photos show standard family configurations, not every shaft or displacement. The wheel and bearingless variants require their own approved mechanical assembly. Brake limits apply only to the illustrated brake unit and do not replace the motor-specific duty review.
Start with the continuous torque you need at your working pressure. Then check your shaft speed against the continuous rpm column.
The P85 summary lists 125 L/min continuous and 150 L/min intermittent for all seven nominal sizes. The following is a transcription of that summary for initial comparison; conflicts with the curve pages require written duty confirmation before selection.
| Model | Speed cont. / int. (rpm) | Pressure cont. / int. (bar) | Torque cont. / int. (Nm) |
|---|---|---|---|
| BMT200 | 625 / 750 | 200 / 240 | 590 / 710 |
| BMT250 | 500 / 600 | 200 / 240 | 730 / 880 |
| BMT315 | 380 / 460 | 200 / 240 | 950 / 1140 |
| BMT400 | 305 / 365 | 200 / 240 | 1081 / 1260 |
| BMT500 | 240 / 285 | 180 / 210 | 1221 / 1370 |
| BMT630 | 196 / 233 | 160 / 190 | 1318 / 1496 |
| BMT800 | 154 / 185 | 130 / 160 | 1460 / 1520 |
| Application | Variant to Review | Points to Confirm |
|---|---|---|
| Conveyors, augers | BMT, square or diamond flange | Torque at duty pressure, shaft code, drain routing |
| Rotary equipment | BMT standard | Combined speed and pressure, 82 °C limit |
| Engineered wheel drives | BMTW, F7 flange, A10 shaft | Hub PCD 200 mm, taper fit, radial load |
| Gearbox or hub-integrated drives | BMTS, F8 flange, A9 shaft | External bearing, spline engagement |
| Parked or held loads | BMTB | Static holding only, 25 bar release |
A model number alone does not define an orbital motor. The shaft, flange, port and drain codes do, and we quote against those codes.
Not by model name or dimensions alone. Confirm the original full code, mounting, shaft, ports, rotation, circuit and rated duty before approving a replacement. No specific OEM cross-reference is verified here.
No. The combined duty is confirmed for each size.
No. 310 bar is a transient peak only.
There is no universal rating. The 175 bar case and 200 bar return peak figures need verification of configuration, speed and drain.
No. It is a parking brake, rated 800 Nm max with 25 bar release on the specific brake unit.
Yes. The gearbox or hub must carry the shaft loads.
Up to 6 seconds per minute, with system temperature at or below 82 °C.
Trade terms are EXW Hebei, China. MOQ, sample terms and lead time are quoted per confirmed configuration.
Search spellings include BMT200 / BMT 200 / BMT-200; BMT250 / BMT 250 / BMT-250; BMT315 / BMT 315 / BMT-315; BMT400 / BMT 400 / BMT-400; BMT500 / BMT 500 / BMT-500; BMT630 / BMT 630 / BMT-630; BMT800 / BMT 800 / BMT-800. BMTW, BMTS and BMTB identify different wheel, bearingless and brake versions, not automatic substitutes. These size aliases are not complete order codes.
Compare the separately specified B6K and B4K motors. A matching nominal size does not establish interchangeability.
Send us the size, the shaft, flange, port and drain codes, your duty pressure and speed, the quantity and your destination market. We will return an EXW Hebei quotation for that exact configuration, with sample terms and lead time.
